Now I just moved, but goddam. $17000. Whats the biggest bill you've ever got?

For the record, I'm paying it all off, no balance.

Damn. I will be in a similar boat very soon, only furniture we have is bedroom stuff. I will have 3k after my move. That will be my largest bill ever.

I can't think of a credit card bill of more than about $4,000 (the month we renovated our basement, bought projector, home theater equipment, etc.). Paid it off that month.

Same as you - moving. $11,000 for air/boat transfer to new place/storage. $12,000 for dog move bills. $5,000 or so for incidentals and monthly living expenses. Close to $30,000 but it was a corporate AMEX with no limit. We got most (not all) of it back but it was crazy authorizing the payment from our bank account.

It cost you $12k to ship your dog overseas?!? I'd have rowed it across the Atlantic myself for half that. :laugh:

Someday I'll pretend to have enough money to start a thread on OC about paying off my $17k credit card bill.

That was without the 2 grand my company paid for dogsitting and babysitting during the move.

I hope we have everything we need so this never happens again. Our problem was our old house came with a lot of builtins. So we didn't have a dresser or a desk for the office. And the water has a hardness of like 9 so i needed the softener.

Mine was close to $600. I held out and refused to get a CC for the longest time. Still not a fan and only use it to buy flights.

We were living in a hotel for 6 weeks and my wife works. So it was like 75 a day for both for 24 days. Wasn't like a 1 day for 2k thing.

If my math is correct, that's not $12k.
